Have you ever been asked to hold something for safe keeping and end up loosing that item? It happens allot and this is what happened with Brian and his daughter. Upon arriving at a local outdoor fall festival event Brian’s daughter asked him to pocket her two rings while she enjoyed all the rides and food and at the end of the day, while they were walking to the car she asked her dad for her rings and he only pulled one ring out of his pocket! It was like her class ring had simply disappeared. They back tracked where they had spent time and were not able to find her ring. Brian’s daughter was quite upset and Brian left word with the owners about the lost ring. I spent some time searching for the ring during the following day and it was found in the large grassy parking lot right where Brian had parked his car the day before. Brian and his daughter were very, very happy to get the ring back!

Lost wedding ring in Hart Springs, Bell, Florida found by Florida ring finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Alexis and her husband were enjoying a fun day at Hart Springs and after jumping off of the high platform two times he realized that he still had his wedding ring on and it was feeling just a bit loose. Alexis was standing behind the railing by the edge of the jumping platform when he removed his wedding ring and handed it to Alexis for safe keeping and she slid it onto her index finger thinking it would be fine. But her husband thought it needed to be put on her middle finger so as she attempted to remove his ring from her index finger it all of a sudden popped off and dropped into the water below sinking straight way to the bottom of the spring. Alexis and her husband were stunned and after a few minutes they attempted to dive down and retrieve their now “lost ring”! It was close to 14 feet deep and their attempts were futile which made the situation even more intense…especially since they were just married not even two months ago! Alexis went online and found theringfinders.com and in the “Directory” noticed that there was no one else closer to Hart Springs that could help her and figured that maybe I could…being as I was scuba certified and in the Orlando area…145 miles away!! But when Alexis told me what happened and described how they saw exactly where the ring hit the water…I knew that there was a very, very high likelihood of being able to recover it and so we made plans to meet the next day. My dear wife accompanied me early the next morning and two and a half hours later and in a slight drizzle we met Alexis and she showed us the platform and it didn’t take me long to set up my scuba tank, 50 foot hose and diving gear and down into the water I went. I carefully grid searched a 10X20 foot area and found two rings and other items and thankfully one of the rings was Alexis’s husbands ring and to say she was relieved and thrilled…was a bit of an under statement! Come to find out Alexis’s husbands birthday was on this very day and she wanted to be able to surprise him with his “lost” ring and she told me later that it was amazing! How I thank God for allowing me to be used to be a help and a blessing to this dear young couple!

Lost Cartier Promise ring in Crescent Lake, Florida…Found by Mike McInroe, Florida Ring Finder.

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



I received a call from a young lady named Joy who had dropped her Cartier ring off of a dock and needed some special help. The water at the end of the dock was just over 7 feet deep and there was no way she nor her father could hold their breath and dive down and attempt to recover her ring. Thoughts raced through her mind that maybe a fish picked it up and swam off with it or maybe the current pushed it way under the dock or it sunk down into the silty lake bottom to stay hidden forever…forever lost! Later that evening Joy went online to search for “Underwater metal detecting service” and came across theringfinders.com website and decided to give me a call. She and her parents were checking out of the Airbnb the next morning by 11:00am so I made arrangements to meet her at 8:30am the following morning and I was hoping and praying I would be able to recover her lost ring before they had to leave.

The next morning I arrived and set up my Blu3 Nemo dive system and used a PVC pole to mark the spot where Joy said she saw the splash where her ring hit the water. The bottom of the lake was sandy and smooth but the visibility was only a foot or so and as I descended down the pole I immediately got a strong signal! It was a 2.5 pound weight used for weight lifting so I left it there and continued searching. I covered the whole area, digging up sinkers and screws and pieces of aluminum and bottle tops, a knife/pliers, etc. After 40 minutes I was beginning to wonder if maybe Joy was mistaken about exactly where her ring fell into the water! I decided to go back and recheck all the larger deeper targets and I began at the PVC pole with the 2.5 weight and as I lifted it up to put it into my pouch I received a quiet signal just to the side of where the weight was. I ran my fingers through the sand and felt something round and ring like…and there it was…just inches away from the PVC pole marker!! As I surfaced I held my hand up with her ring on my little finger and Joy’s face was in shock and she was stunned. She told me later that she was starting to give up hope and then I came out of the water with her precious lost ring! How I thank God for allowing me to find Joy’s lost ring and be a blessing to her in her time of need.

Lost diamond engagement ring in grass, Eustis Florida, Found!

Contact me for all your metal detecting and recovery needs! My name is Mike McInroe…Central Florida Ring Finder at 321-363-6029. On land, in the water, the grass, sand, in cars, in homes…rings, keys, chains, phones, property markers, etc.

I received a frantic call from a young lady who works as a wedding organizer and as she was pulling up to the wedding venue she stopped her vehicle to get out and forgot that she had previously removed her diamond engagement ring and set it on her lap. It was a few minutes later that it dawned on her and she immediately went back to where she parked and began desperately looking for her ring. She looked inside her car and under the seat and then started searching the grass and gravel drive way. Having only been engaged for just 2 months…she could not believe that she had lost her precious ring already and could not imagine what her fiance would say! She spent the next 2 hours on her hands and knees running her fingers through the grass and over turning the rough gravel. Then the idea of a metal detector came to her. Looking online for a “Metal Detecting Service” she came across theringfinders.com and gave me a call. I assured her that I was available and could meet her within the hour and as I pulled into the wedding venue I could see this beautiful young lady with red knees and hands and a very worried look on her face. She explained what all happened and as we walked over to where she had parked and gotten out of her car…she was gesturing and pointing to where she had searched and how difficult it was, crawling around on the gravel and then her eye caught a slight glimmer of something silvery looking and she bent down and picked up her own lost diamond engagement ring! She was stunned and we both just looked at each other and smiled. What a relief and a joy it is to be available to help someone find what they thought was lost forever and to see the happiness and peace it brings them when they get their lost item back again. I thank God for giving me another opportunity to be a blessing to someone in need!

Kala called me to see if I could help her find her husbands lost wedding ring in their back yard. I always ask the usual questions like, “When did this happen? and “How did it end up in the yard and what actions were involved?, etc. She said her husband had tried to throw one half of a small spoiled watermelon from their back porch and into the small lake behind their apartment for the turtles to eat…but as he threw the melon he felt his wedding ring go flying out into the darkness as well. He immediately got his flashlight and started searching through the grass, but after 3 hours he gave up and went to his computer to order a metal detector. The next day he got his metal detector and tried searching the yard but being unfamiliar with how to properly operate the machine he ended up getting more frustrated. He then entered “Metal Detecting Service Orlando” on his phone and up popped one of my recent recoveries on theringfinders.com website. I arrived early the next day and Gabriel showed me exactly what happened. So I began my grid search down at the edge of the lake and within minutes I got the perfect signal. Gabriel was over whelmed and explained just how sentimental his wedding ring is to him and how thankful he was to have it back on his finger. How I thank God for allowing me to be a blessing to Gabriel and his dear wife. So…how can I help you? Call or text me at 321-363-6029 and let’s talk.

Two cell phones thrown in lake, Orlando Florida…recovered by Mike McInroe, Florida Ring Finder

This search began with a text from a distraught young lady who unfortunately had her cell phone thrown into a small lake behind the Airbnb that they were staying in. And to make matters worse she ended up throwing her husband’s phone into the same body of water only minutes later…Yikes! It did not take them long to realize the error of their actions and they went online to find some much needed help and that led them to theringfinders.com and my phone number. I met them later that day and listened to their story and then I geared up with my wet suit, scuba boots, long handled beach scoop and my trusty Garrett ATMax waterproof metal detector. They had a fairly good idea where the phones landed in the water but between the weeds and the muck and silt…plus the fact that the bottom dropped away about 15 feet from the shore made it very difficult to search and retrieve any signal. I found the young lady’s phone after 40 minutes of searching and was able to use my long handled scoop to reach down over the sloped area and drag it close enough to retrieve. The young man’s phone was further out and I managed to tread water and swing my metal detector by holding on to the back arm rest portion thus allowing me to push it deeper into the water and my first good signal was an old beer can and then minutes later another large sounding signal that required the use of a long handled fishing net. After 5 attempts of dragging a net full of muck and silt and trying to keep myself lined up to where I got the signal I finally felt what I was looking for in the bottom of the net…the young man’s cell phone!

How I thank God for helping me recover these two phones and for allowing me to be a help and blessing to this young couple! How can I help you? Contact me or a member of theringfinders.com and let’s talk.

Cocoa Beach Florida Lost gold wedding ring found by Ring Finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Andy was visiting friends here in Cocoa Beach, Florida and after a day out fishing in the Atlantic Ocean they pulled their boat into the loading dock area and Andy decided he needed to rinse the fish smell off of his hands. So he laid down on the dock and while rinsing his hands in the warm salt water his gold wedding ring slipped off of his finger and disappeared into the depths below the dock! Of course he was shocked and immediately waded out into the water but soon realized the water was way too deep to even try and attempt a dive. Someone suggested calling a Ring Finder and they contacted Al Zenker, a local member of theringfinders.com but unfortunately he does not do deep water recoveries and he recommended they call me. I met Andy and his friends at the dock and checked the depth to be sure my Blu3 Nemo dive system would allow me to search the bottom effectively and it measured just over 10 and a half feet deep so I was good to go!

I suited up and set a PVC marker pole at the spot where Andy’s ring fell into the water. Visibility was just over a foot and as I descended to the bottom I immediately got a couple of signals. A rusty screw driver, a deep signal and then a sharp clear signal and my hand felt something round and smooth and I slipped it on my index finger. As I ascended to the surface I came out of the water finger first and watched Andy’s face. He was visibly in awe that I had actually found it and was so thankful and grateful to have his lost ring back once again!

Lost gold ring in the sand at Ormond Beach, Florida…Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



This ring recovery began late Friday evening when I received a desperate text from a young lady who while talking on the phone made a random gesture and her very sentimental ring fell off of her hand and disappeared into the sand at her feet. Her father and sister immediately began running their fingers through the sand but somehow they could not seem to be able to find the lost ring. This was a very special ring which was given to Jasmine when she was 10 years old by her grandmother and Jasmine wears it all the time! Having recently lost a little weight her ring was just a bit loose! Jasmine’s father purchased a couple of small kids dipping nets thinking maybe that would help but no matter what they tried…nothing seemed to help. Someone suggested they call one of The Ring Finders and that is how they got my number. It was almost midnight when Jasmine called so by the time I gathered my equipment and made the drive it was getting on to 1:30am and thankfully they were able to accurately mark the exact area where she dropped her ring. It only took a minute to get the sweet sound of gold from my Deus 2 metal detector and I motioned for Jasmine to come and assist in locating her own lost ring by using my trusty Garrett pin pointer. As we knelt there in the sand and watched the little flashing light and listened to the beeping sound as she moved it closer to her lost ring…it was a moment of sheer joy as Jasmine gently picked up her ring and held it close with mixed emotions! What an honor it was to help this beautiful young lady and her family and to see the relief it brought them!

Lost diamond engagement ring in pond, Melbourne, Florida recovered by Mike McInroe Florida Ring Finder

Anna and her fiancee were relaxing by the pool and for safe keeping she rolled her diamond engagement ring in the corner of their towel on the lounge chair. And after a nice swim they decided to lay out in the sun and her fiancee grabbed the towel off the chair and Anna’s ring went flying through a safety fence and dropped into the pond water on the other side of the fence. Stunned, she just stood there not wanting to believe what had just happened! They asked the condo management if they could use the pool skimmer net and try and scrape the ring up off the bottom of the pond but their efforts were futile. The water was at least 7 foot deep and they soon realized that they needed specialized help and after a quick search on Google they came across theringfinders.com and decided to call Al Zenker, a member of theringfinders and he came out and gave them some advice, which was to call me as I am scuba certified and live fairly close by. So after hearing Austin and Anna’s story it was obvious that a dive was required so we made plans to meet up the next day.

Most all of the small ponds in central Florida are silty and mud covered bottoms that can be very difficult to navigate and search, especially when searching for such a small item like a ring…BUT…Anna was quite sure about where exactly her ring dropped into the water and that made it so much easier. I just wanted to test the pond bottom so I walked out from shore along the cement block wall/foundation and immediately noticed the bottom was sandy and gravel mixed, which would be 100% easier to search than the mud and silt I was anticipating! Plus the blocks were stacked pyramid style with out rebar and that too made it easier to search. As I slowly descended to the bottom I started getting signals…washers, pieces of copper wire, screws and then one large target that was quite deep. And at the end of each pass of my NOKTA Pulse Dive hand held pinpointer I would go all the way to the base of the block pool foundation and that is where I heard a nice repeatable signal that proved to be exactly what I was looking for! Anna’s lost diamond engagement ring was pushed right up against the block and when I surfaced and showed Anna what I had found, she started shaking! Her emotions were running high and the feelings of relief and thankfulness were so strong she had to sit down and calm herself and let reality sink in…she had her precious ring back once again! So I thank God for leading me and using me to help and bless others!

Lost gold ring in water, Withlacoochee River, Hernando County Florida…found by Florida Ring Finder!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Bennie and his friends were enjoying the day along the Withlacoochee River swimming and taking turns swinging on a rope over the water. As Bennie let go of the rope he felt his gold ring come off of his finger and a sick feeling came over him. This was a very special ring given to him by his father 5 years ago and he has treasured it ever since. And now it had fallen into the depths of the silty river bottom! He and his friends tried diving down and feeling with their hands but the 8 foot depth and uneven bottom was more of a challenge than they could endure. Bennie called his mother and told her what happened and she went online and found Mr. Steve Thomas who is one of the Ring Finders in the West Florida area but unfortunately he only does shallow water and land searches so he recommended they call me to see if I could help them. After hearing their story I decided to meet them at the sight the following day. It was a 2 hour drive but we finally arrived and began setting up my PVC grid, my BLU3 Nemo dive system, mask, wet suit and fins. Bennie was very sure of where he and his ring fell into the water so down I went and began searching along my PVC grid that was setting on the bottom. The first 2 signals were deeper in the sand so I left them and the 3rd signal was louder on my hand held Pulse Dive unit and there sitting on top of the sandy bottom was Bennie’s lost gold ring! I really wanted to continue searching for other targets as the rope swing area was a favorite for the locals but I had noticed just before my entering the water that there was a group of people just waiting for me to finish up so they could enjoy jumping off of the tree and swinging on the rope…so I slowly ascended with Bennie’s gold ring tucked safely in my finds pouch. Bennie was intently watching me as I swam up to shore and as I smiled and gestured with a thumbs up…he began grinning from ear to ear! What a thrill it is to be able to conduct a search, find the lost item and then to return it to someone that is hurting and feeling a great heaviness and loss! And then to experience seeing them transform to happiness and joy and see more tears…only these are tears of sheer relief and thankfulness!

I always pray and ask God to help me be a blessing to each person that calls me for my assistance. How can I help you today? Call or text me ASAP and let’s talk! 321-363-6029
